Default Porsche Re-introducing Manual 911 GT3's?

I have a very good source who is tight with the Porsche manufacturing community and he claims Porsche is looking to re-introduce manual GT3's? Has anyone else heard this rumor? This would obviously not be great news for those over-paying for 2011 and or 2010 manual GT3's?

Regardless, love the GT3 and GT3 RS as the highest form of 911 driving enjoyment.

This is a 911 aircooled tech forum , I think you question should be in the watercooled section. as it would apply to people looking at much newer cars

Cheers.

There is quite a few strays - maybe the mods should rethink the name 911 as it applies to every model. Perhaps addition of "(upto 1989)" would help!

Wrong forum or not, Andreas P already confirmed this. One doesn't need an inside line with a friend close to source to know this. It was part of a press conference over a week ago.

LOL. Elayne blurted out just a couple days ago that Porsche is going to stop production of the GT2. I chuckled and said it was the end of the world. They made what, 200 of them?

Yep. IDrive did a piece this week on the Sharkwerks GT2. He said there are only 87 in the US because that was all they could sell. There were more allocations than orders.
